Hey Red,
Rental periods are 24 hours. Price in Terlingua is $115 plus Taxes and ins., comes to about $150 out the door. We use a tire real close to the OEM, about a 50/50 tire which should work good in the sand and loose stuff.
Let me know if you have any more questions.

Just want to say thanks to all of you who rented bikes from us last week for the Around the Bend ride, and to all of you who stopped in to say hi.
It was great meeting all of you. With the response we have had we'll more than likely be down here again next winter.
If any of you plan on coming to the Smokies let us know if we can help, we have lots of routes and maps of the area and a shop if needed.

Wrapping up our stay down here in Terlingua, last day for rentals will be Sunday, March 27th.
Due to the response we have had we will defiantly be back next year, looking at the last week of January through the first week of March.
Thanks again to all of you who rented bikes from us and let us know if you need any help if you find your way to the Smoky Mountains.

Spring is here finally! We'll be open for business Monday March 28th for the season.
Most of the roads are open and NO rockslides so far this year, YEE HAW!
If you plan on heading this way give us a call if we can help.
Ride Safe,
Dan

It is no crime to be ignorant of economics, which is, after all, a specialized discipline and one that most people consider to be a ‘dismal science.' But it is totally irresponsible to have a loud and vociferous opinion on economic subjects while remaining in this state of ignorance. – Murray N. Rothbard

The accepted wisdom is that without the state, society would collapse into lawlessness and crime. In fact, lawlessness and crime define the very nature of the state and the society organized by it. - Bionic Mosquito

But the myth of the rule of law does more than render the people submissive to state authority; it also turns them into the state's accomplices in the exercise of its power. For people who would ordinarily consider it a great evil to deprive individuals of their rights or oppress politically powerless minority groups will respond with patriotic fervor when these same actions are described as upholding the rule of law. - John Hasnas

Not sure if we'll bring the Super Ten to the Big Bend or not this winter, I guess it depends on how much demand.
Scott, you going to make it up this way anytime soon, if not maybe we'll see ya this March at the Round the Bend.

I was talking about this with some folks this weekend in Arkansas. There seems to be some interest in me putting together a group trip. If there is enough interest, I'd gladly put a trip together for street and DS riders.

Dan, I don't know how much riding you get to do yourself while you are down there, but if you get the chance, I highly recommend heading over to Big Bend Ranch State Park. There is some fantastic riding over there!! Here's my report from a recent trip:
